  can i use a 3d app for mac with my vector files from illustrator?

  • not sure about blender > def can in maya– kewHexton1/12

    ill be using the software mainly for my hobby of making giant robots. so im not earning off it.– o_O2/12

    is maya the only real route for me though? or is there other opportunities with 3D and $ ?– o_O3/12

    It sounds like you'd be interested in more of the modeling side of things -- I've heard that modo (mentioned above) is a good modeling tool but I'm really just a maya guy– kewHexton4/12

    here is my vector work.

    i want to make it 3D.– o_O5/12

    i missed the modo link, it looks like a fit. or better than blender.– o_O6/12

    yeah def talking about modeling which most programs above will allow you to do > just with different tools– kewHexton7/12

    the base c4d pacage is under a grand. works well with AI files. download the trial and give it a go.– Chief8/12

    I know C4D will import Illustrator curves. I suspect most if not all 3D programs can also. Looks like most of your work would be done with 3D primitive tools though.– CyBrain9/12

    ... with 3D primitive tools: extruding cylinders, etc.– CyBrain10/12

    i actually draw out everything you see. i may use an extrusion app for references.– o_O11/12

    but everything you see, is drawn out with the pen tool.– o_O12/12
